A 374-unit condo completed in 2019, 600 metres from Kamala beach
Citygate — condo project, Kamala: entry from ~$124,183, from $3,548 per sqm. Beach: Kamala, ~600 m. Both freehold and leasehold available. Yield: ~5% developer projection. Completed December 2019 (Phase 1).
Citygate is a condo complex completed in 2019 in Kamala on Phuket’s west coast: 374 units across five 8-storey buildings on a mixed residential-and-commercial plot of roughly 5 rai. The developer, Citygate Exclusive Development Co., Ltd., completed this as its first project in Kamala before launching the off-plan Citygate De Phuket in the same area.
Kamala is one of the quieter beach districts on the west coast, sandwiched between busy Patong to the south and the MontAzure resort cluster to the north. The beach is 600 metres away, about an 8-minute walk — a rare combination of budget pricing and beach walkability. Our catalog also lists projects from a very different price tier in the same district: Andara (from ~$1,744,964) and Cape Amarin Estate (from ~$4,300,000) — Kamala’s premium cluster, whereas Citygate serves the district’s mass segment, closer in spirit to local residential stock than to luxury hillside residences.
Entry to the project starts at ~$124,183 for a 1-bedroom unit from 35 sqm, with price per sqm ranging from ~$3,220 to ~$4,199 depending on floor and view. That’s notably below the average ticket for the district’s premium projects (Andara, Cape Amarin, Botanica MontAzure — from $1M and up), making Citygate one of the few affordable entry points into Kamala at all. The developer projects roughly 5% annual rental yield — a conservative, plausible figure for a completed budget complex, but still a marketing projection rather than audited occupancy data.
The project has been fully completed since December 2019 — a significant plus: you can assess the actual build quality and common-area condition rather than trusting renderings. The downside is that Citygate Exclusive Development Co., Ltd. is a regional company without a public portfolio of major projects beyond Kamala, so its reliability as a management structure is judged largely on this one completed asset. CAM fee and sinking-fund figures conflict across sources and look unreliable — that’s the first thing to request directly from the juristic office before reserving a unit. It’s also worth not confusing this completed complex with the same developer’s newer off-plan project, Citygate De Phuket — similarly named, but a different building at a different stage of readiness.
Who it suits: a buyer who wants a finished (not under-construction) condo within walking distance of Kamala beach at a price well below the district’s premium tier, and who is prepared to independently verify actual operating costs. Buyers focused on a developer with a large international portfolio, or a premium villa, should look at other Kamala or neighbouring-district projects.
Our role as an agency — on a completed asset with conflicting operating-cost data, we will confirm the current CAM and sinking-fund rate with the juristic office and verify the status of the specific unit (availability, building) before recommending a reservation.

Our catalog currently tracks 17 projects in Kamala; new-build entry level here: from ~$82,864. Citygate’s entry price is about 70% below the district median — one of the most affordable starts in the area.
The median is calculated from the “from” prices of all catalog projects in the district and refreshes with every update.
Neighbours are picked by the same property type and the closest entry price in the same area — the projects our buyers actually shortlist against each other. Figures recalculate with every catalogue update.

The developer information in this listing states: freehold / leasehold. This is the project-level starting point, not a legal opinion on a particular unit. The contract, title, foreign quota and seller authority must be verified before reservation.
A foreign-quota condominium is registered in the buyer’s name. Purchase funds must enter Thailand with the correct purpose so the receiving bank can issue the foreign-exchange evidence used at the Land Office.
Leasehold is registered as a long-term lease. The review covers the term, renewals, assignment, inheritance, early termination and the landowner’s obligation to register the transaction.
Verify the receiving legal entity, construction milestone, payment trigger, delay remedies and the documents the seller must deliver for registration.
This is general information. Structure and taxes depend on the unit, seller and contract; an independent Thai lawyer should complete the final review.
Indicative estimate: yield and the rental model depend on the project, unit and management program. Request an exact projection for a specific unit.

Citygate Exclusive Development Co., Ltd. — a regional developer; Citygate is its first completed project in Kamala, followed by the off-plan Citygate De Phuket.
The one and only phase was completed in December 2019 — units are already occupied and rented out.
Both are available. Freehold units fall under Thailand’s standard 49% foreign ownership quota per building.
The developer states a projected ~5% a year. That is a marketing projection, not a guarantee — actual returns depend on the occupancy of the specific unit.
Citygate De Phuket is a newer off-plan project by the same developer, with larger units (up to 191 sqm) and completion targeted around 2028. Citygate itself is already a finished, occupied 2019 complex.
Yes, the unit stays yours. Inside a managed rental program the number of owner-stay nights is capped by the contract — we go through the exact terms for this project before you book.
Funds arrive from abroad in foreign currency and the Thai bank issues an FET form. Without it the Land Department will not register freehold to a foreigner, so we agree the amount and payment reference in advance.
